    That can’t be from the Daily Excess. There was no mention of Princess Diana. :rolleyes:

    Over the decades, I’ve seen these same scare stories printed about just about every ethnic and social grouping you can imagine. They pander to the lowest form of prejudice and bigotry and, as we can see, there are always some who will take the bait.

    And what in the name of sanity is “the equivalent of 15 arrests a day”?

    Charliehunt has hit the nail squarely on the head.

    Like it or not, the USA has important political, diplomatic and economic interests in Latin America and no US Secretary of State will do or say anything to jeopardise or diminish them if they can avoid it.

    At the same time, the UK is an important military and political US ally and no US Secretary of State will willingly do or say anything that might harm that relationship.

    Hence the splinters up the bum.

    Remember: we’re all Bloody Foreigners from the perspective of the USA.

    Sounds more cultural than religious to me.

    Pretty damn unpleasant, either way.

    People need to separate basic human rights from superstition.

    And no doubt Charlie, that means 120 accused, just “Walk”?. 🙁
    Jim.

    There’s always a retrial with a different jury hearing and seeing the same evidence, Jim.

    Edit: I see Charliehunt has already pointed this out.
